Conclusion and Calculation

From this, we applied the calculation 12/46 to arrive at 26% of the sources in some way enhanced their accuracy buy offering more accurate information on the subject of SAP Netweaver.

As is covered in the in A Study into the Accuracy of SAP, SAP Netweaver had little impact on SAP projects. (That is Netweaver “itself” not Netweaver as a term appended to different products from PI to the BW).

The result is that IT media entities that questioned or offered contrary information on SAP Netweaver were more accurate than those that did not.
